I had a nice time with Gil. He showed me around and later we hung out at his place. But he had to hide me, because he lived with his parents and they don’t like him to hang out with girls, I guess.

His room had no windows, but lots of smokers lighters and a pro palestine flag on his wall. He recognised my interested view and said: „I don’t really know, why this is here.“ He excused for this. He would be religious but not too much, he would be for palestine, but not too much, he did some bad stuff, but not too much. Last night in Jerusalem and Bye Bye again… weiterlesen →

After Sabbath, we chilled in Sacher Park for a while.

Found a half bottle of wine, smoked and listened to PUNK rock.

Felt like 16. The weather was great.

Later we met the others by accident. They just told us a few minutes ago that they would arrive and stay in the same Hostel then Phillip and me. I was so happy.

… don’t talk about politics… don’t scream: free gaza… some people told me, better not to do these and that… and I really was afraid to hurt somebody or land in jail… lots of people get tears in their eyes or just freak out… but in fact, i am always sensitive and immediately stop, when I recognise that this topic causes too much pain…but I can’t help myself. I had to talk about this shit…

We had lots of good interesting conversation with Jews, German Jews, Arabic, Moslems, Non- Religious, Palestines…. I didn’t know, that there are living Palestines in Jerusalem. But in fact, they have different rights. When you cross the country you will pass Palestine regions. Borders, soldiers… You hear lots of horror-Stories from both sides.

Shabbat shalom!

My parent’s friends invited us on Friday to celebrate the Sabbath with them. Jan collected us from Mt. Herzl – the Holocaust Memorial a bit outside from the city.

He explained us, what Sabbath means for Jews and I read some interesting stuff in a modern interpretation on the Torah (the Bible for Jews.. in Fact this Religion was the first of the monotheist ones, where people believe in ONE big creator of everything). Lots of this sounds reasonable for me. As they spoke about two souls inside a human being.

The good and the bad… the animal and the god… the fast and the slow…every human has the possibility to become great or nuts… depends on what he wants… and I read about responsibility of every human being to take care of others… we have to sacrifie before we can get something… you give. you get. you take. you are thankful.

Actually it is very simple. Doesn’t matter in what God you believe. Shabbat shalom! weiterlesen →

Tel Aviv, Graffiti art and other stuff

The flight was actually not long for a long distance traveler, but flying and sitting in a plane is always annoying. Anyway, after 7 hours I arrived in Tel Aviv at Ben Gurion Airport. I had to change in Istanbul, where I just caught the Transit flight in time. Pegasus is always a bit late, but they are nice and cheap.

I immediately got in touch with another German and an Israeli who showed us how we got to our hostels. I had no clue. I just trusted. And reached my hostel. Hayarkon 48. Next to the beach. The service was great, breakfast inclusive. One night costs 25 Euro. It was the first and cheapest hostel that popped up, when I booked one day before. I hate to make plans before, but i am always lucky.

IMG_1677 IMG_1676 IMG_1673

Worst case scenery would be to sleep in a McDonald’s I thought myself. So this was so much better. I was happy. And finally arrive in the hostel around 01:00 in the night. I had to learn, that they don’t sell alcohol after 23:00. That was a pity. Tel Aviv, Graffiti art and other stuff weiterlesen →

Short Trip to Israel

Schreibe einen Kommentar

IMG_1655Why? I don’t know.  IMG_1654

Maybe because of this Hype that’s going on in Germany right now. Lots of German travel there these days.  Maybe because of the weather, maybe because it’s not the Israel Governent that’s in our news, but the Turkish.

IMG_1758 IMG_1757 IMG_1752

Two years ago it was the opposite. Turkey was great but Israel was in war against Hamas again. August 2015. Nobody travelled there, except my parents, who told me how nice and peaceful everything is. Media has a fucking deep impact on everything. The reality is another one.
